IUBMB Comments

The enzyme, found in higher plants, green algae, and some phototrophic bacteria, is involved in the production of monovinyl versions of (bacterio)chlorophyll pigments from their divinyl precursors. It can also act on 3,8-divinyl chlorophyllide a. cf. EC 1.3.7.13, 3,8-divinyl protochlorophyllide a 8-vinyl-reductase (ferredoxin).

The expected taxonomic range for this enzyme is: Eukaryota, Bacteria, Archaea

Synonyms
8-vinyl reductase, c8-vinyl reductase, divinyl reductase, n-dvr, rsp_3070, osdvr, nucleoside-diphosphate-sugar epimerase, os03g22780, 3,8-divinyl chlorophyllide reductase, divinyl chlorophyllide a 8-vinyl-reductase, more
